Colon cleansing in when you use a colon hydrotherapy treatment or oral cleansing regimens to remove faecal waste from the colon and intestinal tract. Colon hydrotherapy is a procedure where water (sometimes mixed with herbs) is injected into the colon usually using a enema bag and is believed to be beneficial. Oral colon cleanser regimens typically rely on dietary fibre, herbs or pharmaceutical laxatives. What procedure that makes the best colon cleanser in different circumstances and stuations is a hotly debated topic in the communities that believe in the beneficial effects of colon cleansing.
Colon Hydrotherapy equipment can cause disease to spread, e.g. amoebiasis, it he equipment wasn’t steralized properly and it is therefore important to only visit reputable businesses if you want a colon cleansing at a spa or resort. Facilities that only use single use equipment are among the safest. One way of finding out more about the standard of various businesses is to read colon cleanse reviews online; preferably from several different independent sources. Also keep in mind that the equipment can cause damage to the rectum if used improperly, and there is a risk of electrolyte imbalances associated with heavy colon cleansings. In the United States, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulate the production of colon hydrotherapy equipment but do not oversee their use.
A long time ago the ancient Egyptians believed in something called the Auto-intoxication principle or hyptothesis which stipulates that putrified feaces left in the line of the walls of the intestines could cause a number of illnesses. The idea was widely dispelled during the 20th century medicine but is still regarded true by many practitioners of alternative medicine.
One of the first and most important people in the history of the Auto-intoxication hypothesis is the 19th century Russian microbiologist Ilya Ilyich Mechnikov, best remembered for his pioneering research into the immune system and for receiving the 1908 Nobel Prize in Medicine for his work on phagocytosis. Mechnikov argued that aging is caused by toxic bacteria in the gut and that lactic acid can be used to counteract this. He drank sour milk every day and published the book “The Prolongation of Life: Optimistic Studies“. His work inspired Japanese scientist Minoru Shirota to start investigating if there might be a relationship between bacteria and good intestinal health. In time Shirota came up with Yakult which is a togurt like Probiotic bevarage that contains Lactobacillus casei of the strain shirota.
